Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith - one of the most iconic characters in cinematic history has returned for the Obi-Wan series and I could not be more excited to discuss Star Wars again. As many long-time subscribers know, I used to cover Star Wars all the time - not to the level that I detail Marvel Cinematic Universe or DC Extended Universe power scaling, but a decent amount. I have made videos on Ahsoka, Darth Maul, Mace Windu, Boba Fett, and even the High Republic. I’m a massive fan, but with other properties taking up the bulk of my time, I haven’t had the chance to delve into Star Wars as much, but now is the time to return. So, in this video I will be detailing Darth Vader’s incredible power, speed, and force abilities; however, I’m going to do it a bit differently than a typical Key Issues power scaling video. I’m going to take you on a journey from Anakin’s turn to the Dark Side and his rebirth as Darth Vader in Revenge of the Sith all the way through his death in Return of the Jedi to show you how powerful Vader is throughout his time as Sidious’ most powerful weapon. - Zábava

Hey I think you have bots doing give fake give aways
@@KDMSHOWCASE yup.
Hello Key Issues! Can you do a video on how powerful/strong Thor is during Thor Love and Thunder?
Darth Sidious would be a perfect character to promote Duracell batteries... Unlimited POWAAAAAHHHH
(Enter intense sidious laugh)
😂HAHAHAHA😂
is true
"The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant compared to the power of the force"
-Darth Vader
LMAO FR
Roasted body spits roasting facts 🔥🔥🔥
People tend to forget that water is denser than air. In fallen order, the water Vader held is more impressive than it looks. Plus having to keep the entire area of the base from collapsing in due to the water. Ahsoka should get more credit for her standing up to Vader. Though his power level wasn't topped, still impressive.
I'm agreeing with you
He is holding 136,586,969.32kg
DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT EQUATES TO
The titanic fully loaded with people and food. He wouldn't even break a sweat lifting the titanic, he could deadlift the titanic, big ben, the Washington monument, 11 elephants, 50 grand pianos, 5 international space stations, and 10 fully fueled Antonov 255's at the same time! And still have enough force to drink a cup of tea. Vader is beast! Do or do not there is no try size means nothing freakin Yoda nearly had a heart attack lifting a x-wing out of a swamp meanwhile I'm reasonably certain Vader's over here making Starkiller look like an outclassed baby for struggling to just like barely push an imperial stardestroyer a little bit. This man is strong with the force in a terrifying way.
Vader ended up so deep in the water in the current comics that it was black all around. He was able to keep himself inside a sort of force bubble long enough to get to a safer place. That is truly insane. Look for Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith. Vol 3. The Burning Skies, to see it for yourself.
Wait. Who forgets that water is denser than air? Who are you hanging out with? 😂
@@AdrienMitchell69 meaning its heavier, people brush it off
771 times heavier
Damn Darth Vader is more powerful than he was depicted in the movies
Much more so!
To be fair, he was much older in the movies, plus conflicted with his feelings about his son
This always happens if a series gets comics to tie in to stuff. They end up being powerful as hell and in the movie it looks like a joke lol.
@@mistamaog he was actually strongest in ROTJ it’s just that the directors don’t care for showing crazy feats of strength and also didn’t have the right techniques and technology to do so
@@Senate917 you cant expect a character to be as powerful on live action.
Vader also has beskar hands, instead of the durasteel like the rest of his suit, and he actually has an electrifying net-like blast attack built into them, to make up for his lack of force lightning, which he couldn't use without flesh hands. Then there's the physical strength not often seen with him being able to punch a large dent into a metal surface, and lift several hundred pounds without much effort.
Beskar? Is that how they’ve explained away his hand thing in Empire cause them just being metal/ a force power sounds a lot better because otherwise vader would just be dusting people with the force of a truck
@@creed8712 Well, he has in a few cases dented metal walls and a table, and in a canon comic he actually did beat a man to death with his fists, which looked very brutal and did more damage than you'd expect from a normal hand. It's possible to find cases where his beskar hands are used to do damage, but it usually just doesn't happen because he favors his lightsaber and force powers, which I would too if I had those things. There is mention that blasters can be stopped by the force, but I don't remember anyone actually blocking one with it, only a very rare occurence of freezing them temporarily.
One beskar hand.
Or glove the inside isn't beskar.
Didn’t vader like rip apart space time or something?
Great video man. This is exactly the reason why Vader lost to Obi-Wan in the rematch because he was conflicted plain and simple. He wasn't fully enveloped in the dark side that's why palps sensed Anakin peeking through. Also vader was crying! That's Anakin crying. Even in Legends where Vader is said to be 80% of the emperor due to his injuries palpatine even States that he believed Vader could reawaken his full potential even in the suit and injuries if he got rid of the Anakin side of him a psychologically fucked up part if he fully embraced his choices and the path said before him he could reawaken true power, Which is why sidious thought Vader's weakness was psychological and not so much physical. But in this new comics as your video shows the Marvel Disney comics he's an absolute powerhouse. In this new iteration he no longer lost any of his Force potential due to his lost limbs and injuries as he did in Legends. I don't know about you but I think it's great to see Darth Vader in his iconic suit one of the greatest creations in the world of all time being an absolute badass a monster and the true rival to sidious he truly truly tapped in to his hatred and pain about all he lost and his wife Vader seems to have a Hulk like complex about him and if he used this I believe he could have taken the emperor on one-on-one.
Finally someone who really knows canon vader
You're right. Vader does have a Hulk like complex.
Goosefrabba. Goosefrabba.
You know when Obi-One says strike me down in anger and I will be with you always?
Reminds me of David and Goliath.
Remember it was David Banner before it was Bruce Banner.
Psalm 122:5
blud ain’t ever heard of a form of punctuation
I also think people forget just how good of a duelist obi-wan was being one of the best duelists if not the best at his style.
You should do more Star Wars vids. These are great!
Thank you!
Facts
Space Balls > Star Wars
I absolutely agree!!! 💜
Vader is my favourite fictional character period. And this video is a stroke of genius.
What's even more amazing... The fact that he lost half of his body..i.e. Half of his midiclorians. And still had that amazing level of power..
Bro that's not even canon 😭
@@babeatriple Like the yoda mountain lift comic was canon.
@@eeurr1306 yes It was canon
@@babeatriple That doesnt make sense considering he struggles with way smaller things during the clonewars but okay
@@eeurr1306 did you read the entire comic?
calling obi wan a worse duelist and downplaying his ability is a bit unfair, he was called THE master of form 3 by windu, which almost perfectly countered anakins attack minded form
I mean he straight up was a worse dualist then Anakin no argument about that Anakin had him outclassed in Force and Dueling
He's far worse. Look at his duels compared to the best in the galaxy. Yoda, Mace and Anakin are vastly superior.
Lol Anakin was toying with obi wan during the mustafar fight. Anakin was at Yoda's level in revenge of the sith, I mean, his djem-so attack form is on par with plo koon's djem-so, and plo koons beat Yoda, so Anakin could too
@@user-xr3ul2xc1l vader wasn’t toying with obi wan on mustafar and plo koon never beat yoda, that’s literally from some shitty video game that isn’t canon
@@adilhussain5154 Anakin was toying with obi wan, end of story. Anakin could've used the force to put lava on obi wan but Anakin just wanted a fun fight. Anakin is vastly superior.
I am young so i watch them from 1 to 6. It broke my heart seeing my childhood hero loosing his path falling in darkness. But it also sogten my heart seeing him redeem himself joind the light again.a facinating character
I mentioned this before I think in a different video but for force push feats. Vader ended up so deep in the water in the current comics that it was black all around. He was able to keep himself inside a sort of force bubble long enough to get to a safer place. That is truly insane. Look for Darth Vader: Dark Lord of the Sith. Vol 3. The Burning Skies, to see it for yourself.
He was much more powerful than what was depicted, also, in the Kenobi series. They diminished his power to get an emotional ending. Unfair.
@ansal2525 yeah and obi wan was tossing half a mountain around. He got bumped up.
I want them to be done with the Skywalker saga, but I so wish we got a Vader movie to put all notions to rest that he is the baddest ever.
@@saturncrush A Vader's movie is unnecessary. The whole franchise is about him.
@@ansal2525 Sadly you are correct. Seeing aspects of Vader in the comics is all we are going to get unfortunately. Vader breaking loose would be epic
Thank you for this video, it was EXCEPTIONAL 👍 Captivating, brilliantly narrated, excellent composition and an absolute treat to fans who adore and enjoy the knowledge and life of Anakin and Darth.
Vader is my favorite, and everything he went through was testament to a remarkable character.
He was a force of powerful and immeasurable reckoning!
Thank you for the kind words, it really means a lot!
@@KeyIssues
You are most welcome and VERY deserving, and to quote our favorite character..."Impressive, MOST impressive!"
You're videos are so much better then any other CZcamsrs for explaining the power of characters. I'd love for you to make a video on the true power of Darth Nihilus.
i mean you can literally hear how low this guy's IQ is from the way he speaks. he said a character is "relative" to another character, as if it's a synonym for "comparable", rather than a synonym for "in comparison to". a native english speaker should know how the word "relative" is used in a sentence. and he said vader has reaction speed faster than light, even though reaction speed is a measure of time, not velocity. and he keeps using "tons" as a unit of energy when it's actually a unit of mass, although i imagine he means "tons of tnt", despite him not realizing it. and he wants to measure everything by energy (or mass?) even when other physical properties like power would obviously be more appropriate.
this guy would do much better to simply list the feats and not attempt to perform any analysis, because he blatantly lacks the abilities to pull it off.
Absolutely great video man! I hope this videos gets much appreciation because it is just great and very in-depth.
Thanks!
One of your best vids imo. Thank you.
But can he beat Batman with prep time tho?
😅
No. His suit is too vulnerable. And you can use his mental state against him. If I were Batman I would drug him to halucinate about Padme and use some electricity to take out his suit. Then give the killing strike.
Bye bye Vader.
@@Gangst3r4ever 🤓
@@Gangst3r4ever You can't use prep time against a Force Sensitive. The Force will tell them. Its been stated many times that the best way to actually fight someone trained in how to use the Force, you have to be completely clear headed and be as spontaneous and random as possible. Batman would never be able to touch him. Combine this with the fact he won't go for the kill, but Vader absolutely will. He gets his neck broken immediately
Bye bye Batman
Edit: what's also funny, is that everything you said, Vader literally has already gone through and overcame it and grew stronger
@@the_rose_garden01 Well that's just plot armor
I've been waiting for this video for YEARS and it the wait has finally paid off
THABK YOU LEGEND
The only thing about the Obi-Wan vs Anakin duel at the end of episode 3 is that while yes, Anakin is stronger than Obi Wan but was conflicted, Obi-Wan was also emotionally unstable. To the point where he begged Yoda to fight the Emperor instead of Anakin. Not only that, but saying Obi-Wan knew Anakin's style flawlessly gave him an advantage is kind of null since Anakin also knows Obi-Wan's style just as well. They cancel each other out in that aspect
During the Clone Wars, the general consensus was that Anakin had the edge in raw power but Obi-Wan has the edge in tactics/cunning and was relative enough to beat him.
Also, with Anakin being conflicted, yes he was nerfed, but he wasn't nerfed compared to his beginning of Episode 3 self, he was nerfed compared to the massive dark side amp he got that shot him above Yoda and Mace
If I'm not remembering wrong, the novelization said something along the lines of Obi Wan achieving a state of Oneness with the force in a similar way to what happened against Grevious while Anakin's dark side amps were growing
You're right in that last paragraph, the Force was moving with and chose Obi-Wan in that fight. It's not that Anakin was nerfed, it's that Obi-Wan was buffed
plus my guy arrogance made him get his limbs cut off
Aannd Obi-wan is the single greatest practitioner of Soresu. If anyone has a chance at beating Anakin, its someone who can go on the defensive longer than Anakin going on the offensive, until a mistake is made.
Obi would have definitely knew anakin better than the other way around. He kept watching sky guy run into battle leaving his master behind. Ben was always watching MR "no I'm taking him NOW!" And thats why Little Ani got fd up
anakin was "blinded with fury" in their RoTS duel. onlike obi wan he didnt think properly so i dont think their knowledge of each other cancels out
Gotta appreciate staying consistent with canon and not just making a composite video
Combining the two continuities is so lazy to me
@@KeyIssues I agree. I'm worried some of your quotes might have been taken from novelizations of the movies before Disney made the retcon. Are those canon?
@@guesswho8556 According with Star Wars Books, it's canon inside of novelizations only what don't contradict the movies. What is very contradictory
Thanks for the upload, very informative
Obi-Wan was still one of the best duelists in the order, being classified as a level 8 or 7 by Nick Gillard (stunt and fight coordinator of the prequels) depending on if there is a level 9 or not.
Dude was skilled enough to survive a full on 1v1 against Greievous. something that's quite impressive as a duelist.
@@edot7266 grievous is really unimpressive
@@KeyIssues someone didn't see og clone wars miniseries
@@jakielou1884tbh that’s not canon anymore, Grievous sadly is a jobber
@@jakielou1884that ain't canon brah
Also his suit is sort of a double-edged sword. It's pretty durable and his gloves can stop blasts and like you said fireproof and more, but on the other hand it's extremely uncomfortable but that works to his advantage and also its very weak to electricity, as Palpatine made sure if darth vader were to try to kill him, lightning would shut him down
Shutting down the suit doesn't halt an enraged Vader, his rage could probably keep him moving long enough to finish the fight or do a lot of damage.
@Miguel Condado Olivar no I didn't mean shut down like that, I meant to shut that shit down as in best his ass up
man this video is sick... really well done.... I salute you sir..
I cant believe I used to think vader would lose to yoda, too many people are spreading that 80% of sidious myth everywhere.
Yeah that 80% thing is total nonsense, especially for canon
An awesome long video to talk about The Prime Sith Lord...Nice.
Respect and keep up the epic work 😃👍.
Appreciate it
Great break down. Im now subbed to your channel 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great work guys!! 👏
Thank you!!!
incredible video! you got my sub!! may the force be with you! 🖐
Please do more Star Wars videos it’s my favourite franchise other than marvel and DC also do a who is more powerful yoda or mace windu also love this channel keep up the good work
Another great vid maaaaan! 👀
This video did not feel like 42 minutes . The way you read and your tone/emphasis changes made it feel like a conversation. Well done mate 🤝🏾
Fantastic video. You should do an updated one with the recent Vader comics now that he is more on par with Palpatine
I think there was some force involved in how Hedda was able to "see" that ship or the strange nature of hyperspace wich is a difent dimension... or the creators once again failed to grasp the scale of things similar to how the clone army was able to fight a war across a major part of the galaxy with less than 1.2 milion units when the war started and i think it was around 6 milion in the end.
Another banger why am I not surprised
Appreciate it!
I think you should do another powerscaling tier list like what you did with Marvel but for Star Wars
Every inquisitor could have fought him at once and they still would have only had about a 50/50 chance.
edit: more like 2 out of 10
Probably less than that 😭
Definitely less, he maims every single inquisitor when he first meets them just to teach them about pain.
Pretty sure half of them did. And we're embarrassed by him including limb chopping although it was sparring
50/50 at not dying in the first 20 seconds
Well it seems you are oblivious to the power of Vader compared to the inquisitor
Amazing video!
Thanks!
one of the best things disney has done for vader is give him mustafar, his castle, and all his backstory.
I wanna see you do Omni Man vs DCEU Superman
Omni Man stomps lmao.
TV show Omni Man also stomps.
@@gliizee isn’t Tv Show Omni Man stopping a meteor the size of Texas like Moon Level
@@justsomeguywholovesberserk6375 Oh shit ur right. Best feat for DCEU Superman is moving those tectonic plates in MoS in that scene of the newspapers on a wall.
So in actuality both versions of Omni Man stomp.
@@gliizee lol not a stomp
@@Jsipki265 Lol it is a stomp 💀
Double you
When you think about it, that's a MASSIVE praise.
You're, extremely, talented. Thank you for focusing on my favorite thing in the entire world: Star Wars, and my favorite character of all, time: Anakin/Darth Vader. I 100% identify with Anakin/Vader. I understand that pull to the Darkside and also to the Light. Extreme, trauma and of course abuse, etc, leads some, people to channel their, inner "Vader". That rage and hatred can be POWERFUL which I believe makes Darth Vader so, much, more POWERFUL than Sidious could ever, DREAM of being. He knew this, which is why he psychologically manipulated Vader to never challenge him, because Palpatine knew that the day Vader turned on him, Vader would DESTROY him. Vader's pain and hatred as The Chosen One, made him unstoppable. That, type of rage is not to be underestimated.
Great video!
I'm pretty sure Palpatine was just saying the kyber crystal/final order powers were at his disposal, not that his force power was equal to it.
I'm pretty sure I'm right.
@@KeyIssues Can you further explain your reasoning for interpreting his statement that way?
@@KeyIssues
You are wrong
I agree with Weeaboo, If Palpatine had the equal power of all those kyber crystals then he would have just been destroying planets himself and wouldn't have needed the final order. Weeaboo should do another rebuttal video like with the Ahsoka one
@@KeyIssues I read the comic and it doesn’t seem to me like Palpatine is controlling it using the force, it just seems like it’s just another asset of his.
Darth Vader with a beskar armor enhanced suit would be insane.
I believe his hands are beskar
Of course, I want to see an video for Yoda.
Amazing video.
Have you considered doing a video on his Old EU/Legends counterpart?
My friend Crisis has already made one. Check it out in the description!
Nice.. also, your videos are quite informative and entertaining! could you possibly do a How Powerful is Electro (amazing spider-man 2, or no way home)? thx
Post suit Vader is soooooo much stronger than pre suit Vader, idk why but people still seem to think that Vader got weaker after mustafar, but the canon comic he killed kirak infila without a lightsaber (which amps a force user) and when heavily conflicted (he almost died bleeding the crystal a day after he was so conflicted) and kirak is confirmed stronger than oneness boost obi wan, and mace.
He only becomes leaps and bounds superior after that.
The correct way to say is Vader is more limited with the suit on.
But his Force prowess and Lightsaber impact is far more powerful than he was pre suited.
But of course, the suit limit is mobility, and that's it.
@@redace4821 I wouldn’t even say his suit limits his mobility, same as it never did any samurai. He still seems extremely mobile in every fight I’ve ever seen him in. Doin twirls, backflips, massive side dodges, idk I just don’t get the feel the suit limited anything.
George Lucas said he did he said his power dropped 40% so if Lucas said it then it’s law:
@@a-1moves750 wrong, since Lucas doesn’t have anything to do with Star Wars works. What you’re referring to is the extended lore, where Vader is pathetically weak.
He's more powerful yes but has less potential to grow
Anakin/Vader is only able to be defeated when he’s conflicted. If his mind is in the game though, lightside or darkside there’s no hope for his opponent.
Anakin/Vader is emotionally vulnerable and can’t handle them as well as his jedi and sith counter parts. It’s his weakness, always has been.
Palpatine had to nerf his suit cuz even after mustafar if he gave Vader an amazing suit then Vader would've killed him right after the surgery. He even tried to in the comics but the suit was susceptible to lightning and Palpatine had him on a leash for that reason. Palpatine is a giant pussy
14:17 God I wish that was me 😩
💀
All that power, and yet he could not use the force to heal his injuries and regrow his limbs. What a shame
Probably felt he deserved it
He also couldn't get no bitches
I’m pretty sure this is canon and maybe you can correct me if I’m wrong but vader actually tried healing his injuries and when he did he felt much better and wasn’t in as much pain and wasn’t as angry so the light side grew within him and he was returning to anakin but when he did that he lost the ability to heal any more as he needed to be vader to heal himself so it just reverted back to his injured self
Yes! More please.
It is said that Confliction is the worst thing to happen to a force user because it tend to happen during fights or life or death situations
Power scalinggggg. Thank youuuuu
Wait, Garrick throwing in that video of him playing Bass.. you ain’t slick
I just want my subs to know how cute I am
@@KeyIssues The only sub that matters knows. 🤤
can you do part 2 of the sith and jedi weakest to strongest teir list
Now this mans is even mord overpowered.
Yes thank you I agree obi wan at that time against Anakin was not on that level. Now if after he left Ani to die on Mustafa, if he was training all that time I could believe he reaches and possibly surpasses grand master jedi
You can actually scale lightsabers at “Small Planet” Level but comparing the two lightsabers to Palpatine’s lightning which can shut down many, many large ships which can survive faster-than-light speed
I'll tell you what buddy, I've listened to two of your videos so far maybe three, and if you do a video on Darth Sidious, you will have gained a subscriber... An yes I know about the Darth Plagueis novel, yet I would like to hear another perspective on it, someone that would draw from all materials...
Awesome
Thanks!
In the end Darrh Vader is still the deadliest force user alive
Can you power scale darth maul he has been getting underrated lately
Yes Mr. Darth Maul, sir.
If you're gonna put a quote or book excerpt on screen, please put the source on screen alongside it. It not only makes it easier for those interested in the material to track it down but properly credits the author at the time of quotation.
So in your opinion, a non-conflicted Vader would have beaten Obi Wan? Nice video btw.
Yes
Anakins emotions were rampant uncontrollable in the duel on mustafar and his master knew his fighting style and anakin better than anyone which is what led to his defeat at the hands of obi-wan
It’s not exactly a feat, but he also was born from the force which is quite unique and his son reached force highs he never did by being able to create a black hole.
Depending on how you view it sidious hinself used the darkside to impregnate scmee skywalker making him the greatest force user ever
Pretty sure the black hole feat is in legends which is in a whole different all park from canon.
@@postsniper-7532 the creators of that comic said it didn’t happen and it was all a vision .
@@ccl7983 all of what didn’t happen because anakin being a created from the force is cannon I only added my two cents
@@postsniper-7532 honestly that theory is wack asf
I feel that people forget Plo Koon out-dueled Yoda
Good video
Ive always felt Anakin had a higher potential than Vader but he did not know how to control and anakin never losing as much of his body may have been stronger than Palpatine
7:24 in a nutshell.
Anakin body language wanted to die.
You ever gonna rank all the jedi and sith for canon. Also are you going to do that kylo vid you mentioned awhile back
I said in my mace video that I’m gonna focus on individual videos instead of rankings
Oh alright well keep up the good work work this was a fire vid
Video idea
It would be cool if you were to power scale Dr Manhattan from the watchmen
He did take on the gods of the force
You should do a Scarlet Witch update
I thought the last rematch he and Obi-Wan had made Vader look a fool. If there is to be a second season, or perhaps some other show/movie set before Rogue One, I believe they have to make the Dark Lord threatening again
If they ended it with Obi-wan being buried alive by Vader, and Vader walks away seemingly triumphant then that would have been a logical ending to their duel. You can still have Obi-wan use the Force to escape, since he needs to survive long enough to teach Luke about the Force in episode 4. Vader's supremacy over Obi-wan was perfectly logical prior to his Super Saiyan power up after he escapes being buried alive.
The overall problem with Obi-wan having that kind of power level is his lack of combat experience over the time gap. Vader has not just been training in the Dark side, but has been fighting a war against Rebels, therefore his combat skills are fresh and sharp. Even if Obi-wan had kept up with his training (which the show was stupid to say that he hadn't) he would still be rusty. This is to say nothing of the VAST wealth of Expanded Universe content where Vader has pulled off magnificent feats with the Force, some of which are even greater than what's displayed in the show. The majority of Obi-wan's appearances in the Expanded Universe kept him confined to Tatooine (which is where he should be) therefore he hasn't had any grand space adventures to sharpen his ability with the Force. The evidence for Vader being powerful is overwhelming, whereas the evidence for Obi-wan is close to non-existent.
@@rustledentity5511 Vader was conflicted against Obi in the show, non-conflicted Vader would power bomb Obi. His eyes were blue during the fight, and he just let Obi get away after burning him when he could’ve easily reobtained him.
@@CRISIS_COMICS completely agree.
@@CRISIS_COMICS This is even implied when Palpatine claims that his feelings for Obi Wan had weakened him.
@@CRISIS_COMICS you're exactly right bro that's what people don't seem to realize Vader was far from weak power wise he was conflicted just like he was conflicted against ahsoka every time Vader fight somebody from his past that he loved her care for Anakin peeks through messing up later in his connection with the dark side I mean it's evident when he's fighting Obi-Wan he's swinging wildly lunging at Obi-Wan grunting and like you said the first eye you see when helmet is cracked is Anakin's eye not sith yellow Vader's. Also vader was crying! Come on guys that's Anakin crying through Vader. Also vader would have never let Obi-Wan mash up on his control panel like that if he was fully tapped in and just Darth Vader in that moment no way.
More star wars !!
OK
35:26
Don’t forget Vader’s suit is a superconductor.
Shoutout to Ahsoka and especially Cere for putting up the best fight against Vader in canon
At 24:07, that quote has no canon value. It's from the blog+news section of the website which is explicitly stated not canon/official by Matt Martin of the story group. Only the databank portion of the site is canon.
This dude really felt like he had to tell us what "prime" meant in context and then said unmerciless lol
Obito vs Darth Vader
Wow, the Nerd Force is strong with this one.
That’s the things. Yes of course Obi Wan loved Anakin, but he gave up on him twice and very quickly. Luke never gave up that’s why he got him redeemed.
He could be unstoppable
9:30 on that day, Darth Vader was born
should make a kit fisto video
Can you do a video on Marvel’s Clandestines?
Can u do the legends version pls love ur vids
Could u make a video on luke he has gotten some amazing new feats in the recent novel
42 minutes? That’s a girthy video
Vader didn’t learn that Leia was his daughter until Return of The Jedi.
Do a full potential Anikan video
I can't say I know as in-depth the knowledge as you've clearly just shown, because this is a very detailed and well done breakdown, but I do see a few things that were definitely left out in some capacity or another. Darth Vader was never actually taught by Darth Sidious, other than minor lessons, to prevent him from gaining an upper hand. At least to my knowledge, despite wanting Anakin Skywalker to one day surpass him, after his fall on mustafar, he didn't believe that Darth Vader could ever regain the potential he once had as the chosen one of the force Anakin Skywalker. For that reason, Darth Sidious never considered Vader good enough to surpass him, yet also never found anyone capable of surpassing even Vader. Anakin Skywalker, and likely Luke Skywalker, we're supposed to be the chosen ones with nigh unlimited potential, and though the potential of Darth Vader was still far more vast than that of any other known Jedi or Sith outside of Sidious himself, Darth Vader was not capable of ever regaining the potential he once held. Again, at least to my knowledge.
you just said a whole lotta nothing that is outdated and plain wrong. Please look into the canon relationship between Vader and Sidious.
I used to not think the suit was so bad until i realized they didnt put him in a bacta tank, they just stuck him in a chaffy jagged suit with no skin
I'm not sure Vader scales above Yoda or Windu, maybe I'm still biased from Legends but it just seems like a reach to use those Tarkin quotes to make such a definitive statement. I'm not sure how Vapaad works in canon, but depending on legends interpretation, it's kinda a trump card against dark siders. And Yoda can fight against Sideous to a standstill - not sure I'd give that to Vader. Great video though, loved the breakdown overall and agree a lot. I might just not know enough of canon
Did dooku not use vapaad and anakin was the only one capable of beating dooku if anakin was not an emotional wreck obi wan wouldn’t have made it off mustafar
Vapaad works completely differently in canon than Legends.
Sidious gets much stronger over time in canon. He surpassed Yoda millions of times over by the OT.
There are multiple statements that Vader > Yoda and Mace. I provided 3 in this video.
Legends is even better for Vader. Vader is stated by palpatine to be able to kill him. This is the same palpatine who already had control of force storms which tear into hyperspace. This is 5D. Most I can say for mace is that he’s possibly universal+ using Dooku pulling power from across the universe. Legends Vader is just too strong for the clone wars Jedi
@@achimpanzee9210 Yeah, but RotJ-Luke was stated capable of kill both Vader and Palpatine in legends
@@calebejosesousarocha2921 um ok? Luke is a monster lmfao
If you are free to do so, can you source the calcs you used in this? Especially the 760 teraton one. I am planning on doing a calc tread on SW soon and it could most definitely be useful for me.
Also, nice video. Though, NGL, you really highballed SW characters at some points.
It’s consistent…not a highball. Idk y ppl don’t want Star Wars to be strong. Do y’all want to run Yoda’s fade irl or something?
@@CRISIS_COMICS First off, no, no, it really isn't...at all. Aside from some valuage statements, there is nothing supporting MFTL reflex Star Wars with FTL reflex fodder and so far, the best one can scale Vader without any amps like on Mortis or the Force Engine is to his Mustafar Earthquake and Storm feat, that one isn't even debatle, you just can't scale any force user to the Death Star aside from absolute god tiers, like the Ones. The biggest reason being they wouldn't have needed it otherwise, something everyone should be able to logic.
If you use Mortis Anakin or Force Engine Vader however, he is Galaxy to Universal, which are pretty solid.
Which, mind you, is something I wouldn't have said if I didn't want Star Wars to be strong. My concern is logic, in every single power scaling for anything. Not "wanting someone to be strong or weak." That's fanbratism, not power scaling.
Also, my main cornern are the calcs, so I don't see why are you butting in.
@@sobekapep8320
um fyi vader casually reacts to blaster bolts and iirc he even reacted to hyperspace hich allows mFTL++++++ speed
and you're also downplaying vader and the ones
@@CRISIS_COMICS ikr people don't think star wars is that strong when it is
@@StarWarsNegsVerses Blaster bolts have calculated speeds around hypersonic range, that's not what makes SW characters extremely fast. It's reacting to force lightning and a few instances of reacting to real, light-based lasers that do. Also, hyperspace speed feats are rather wonky TBH. Even normal people can manuver their space craft in those and in SW bullets are used, rarely, but still and are plenty effective.
At least Galaxy, likely Universal, is lowballing? Are you *Beep*ing kidding me?
Please do more star wars videos
We will, assuming these videos get views :) so tell a friend haha
